We may condemn the Anti-Machete for destroying Muslim villages, but before we do, let us never forget what America did to the Japanese after Pearl Harbor, and let us remember what Andrew Jackson (my favorite president, actually) did to the savage Indians in his Indian Removal Act of 1830 after the Red Stick War.

I was awaiting the time a quote apologising for the Central African Balaka would get posted from Debbie Schlussel et al.
Did you knew they kidnapped a Catholic nun ?
These Muslim civilians weren't the ones plundering and slaughtering Christian villagers.
Finlly, as for upholding criminals against humanity, he is, once more, [url=http://fstdt.com/QuoteComment.aspx?QID=106109 ]the mirror image of Israel Shamir.
(Aside note, these Indians were only defending their lands.)
They aren't "balaka," they're "anti-balaka"
See, "Balaka" means machete and the Christian militias believe they have magical charms that protect them from blades.
The US-Japan conflict was a declared war with the Japanese government as the agressor (and maybe a mix up with time zones for the declaration of war
Using the nuclear weapons in Japan may have brought a faster conclusion and saved American and allied lives.
You dont justify bad acts now by bringing up bad acts from prior events.

Wow, usually most people don't fucking PRAISE Andrew Jackson for doing that. And also, remember that the majority of Indians removed lived little differently from their white neighbours and weren't the stereotypical half-naked redskinned savages Theodore Shoebat has in his mind. They called them the "Five Civilized Tribes" for a reason, and it just so happened the majority of Indians "removed" happened to be from those five tribes.

That's not really a proven fact about the atomic bombs. It's also argued the Soviet invasion of Japan's colonial possessions and technically Japan itself (Kurils/Sakhalin) did just as much if not more.
One: what America did was an act of defense. The Japanese were the ones to attack.
Two: this was 70 years ago. You don't give shit to modern day Germany for the deeds of the Nazis, now do you? (Sorry for the Godwin, but I think it's appropriate here.)
Three: it was a freaking world war. An apocalyptic carnage engulfing the entirety of Europe and a third of Asia which included the biggest genocide of the XXth century, two usages of the most destructive weapon mankind has ever invented, the total decimation of hundreds of towns and cities, and plunging the Western world into a colossal monetary crisis that lasted for decades afterwards. Things were pretty much over the Godzilla Threshold at that point.
We may condemn Boko Haram for destroying Christian villages, but before we do, let us never forget what the Ottoman Empire did to the Byzantines after the fall of Constantinople, and let us remember what Enver Pasha (my favorite leader, actually) did to the savage Armenians in his policy to remove Armenians from the country after the Battle of Sarikamish.
The problem is that you lose all sympathy and credibility when you're as thirsty for blood as the zealots in rival faiths.
>and let us remember what Andrew Jackson (my favorite president, actually) did to the savage Indians in his Indian Removal Act of 1830 after the Red Stick War.
The Indian's affected most by the Indian Removal were the Five Civilized Tribes. You know, the one's who had enthusiastically embraced European culture, including Christianity by that point in history? No, of course you didn't. Why would you?
The Cherokee got the worst of it by far, even though they had been Andrew Jackson's allies during that war. Jackson would have died at the Battle of Horseshoe Bend had it not been for a Cherokee by the name of Junaluska, who was repaid by being locked up in a stockade like an animal, and force marched out of his own country, to Oklahoma, at gunpoint.
Andrew Jackson did not have one shred of honor, so I can see why a fundie would admire him so much.
"And we must never forget what Seattle did to Denver."
Yeeee buoy, Denver got fucked up in that game, like, sayanara Manning. Russel Wilson forever!
Anyways... back on topic.
Teddy Batshit's fave president was a racist megalomaniac that stole land from and then moved a population across the country with little food or water, which killed most of them. I can go without hearing about him or Andy Jackass ever again and be happy.
So, multiple wrongs make a "right?"
Fuuuuck You.
Edit: Andy, one of my least favorite Presidents, is pretty much a deadlock tie with US Grant as the worst president ever. They had a lot in common. Dumbya, on the other hand, is tied with Taft for the stupidest ever. We tend to elevate those we know best. That's not to say Dumbya wasn't a sack of crap with connections.
Jackson was a fucking traitor. He defied both Congress and the Supreme court to go on his little death march. If you actually look up to the man, than I can legitimately say that you hate America, and what it stands for.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
